A manager is determining which changes to make during a memory-maintenance review for a long-running workflow. Which two actions most effectively support memory quality over time?
Choose two A Delete all memories as the maintenance action to ensure a clean slate, then allow Claude to rebuild context organically through subsequent workflow runs. B Disable Memory entirely to eliminate the risk of stale entries surfacing in future workflow runs. C Identify and edit or delete entries that are stale, inaccurate, or no longer relevant, and add context Claude has not automatically captured but the workflow continues to need. D Leave all memories untouched on the basis that the workflow has been running consistently and no output quality issues have been reported. E Export the current memories as a backup before making changes, so prior context can be restored if a maintenance edit unintentionally removes information the workflow still depends on. Show Answer Answer Explanation Effective memory maintenance includes reviewing and updating stored context so it remains current, accurate, and useful; obsolete or incorrect entries should be edited or removed, while necessary missing context should be added. Backing up existing memories before changes provides a recovery path if an edit accidentally removes context the workflow still requires. Anthropic’s memory guidance recommends regularly reviewing and updating memory as projects evolve.
